Workbench
Here is a snapshot of the environment I work in. I have a dual boot setup with Ubuntu and Windows 11. With Ubuntu as my primary OS, choosing it for its minimal configuration overhead so I can focus on building applications.
  • OSUbuntu / Windows 11
  • Shellzsh & tmux
  • EditorLazyVim
  • WMi3

Workflow

I use Lazyvim for quick scripting or solving Data structures & algorithms problems paired with tmux to manage my sessions. One big change in workflow has been the AI, I have integrated Warp in this workflow for AI assisted coding. I plan to transition this setup to Claude Code, running inside a dev container. I will be sharing more about it soon along with my dotfiles.
